All Chapters of The Alpha's Half-Breed Mate: Chapter 11 - Chapter 20

Selena POV:I woke up slowly. The light that should have been streaming from the window had dwindled and the hum of the woman in the kitchen could be heard. I felt a surge of fear as I looked around the house, but then I heard a somewhat familiar voice speak. Though her back was turned to me, I was sure she was referring to me. Especially because there was no one else in the room.“Don’t panic. It’s not good for your body. This is my house. I grew up in it and my mother and grandmother before me,” she said as she made her way up to me on the couch. The bit of information shocked me. “I am going to tell you a bit about your mother and you will have to process the information slowly. There is no rush, understood?” she claimed. After fifteen minutes, I indeed needed a lot of time to process it. I was just realizing how little I knew about my father and his life before he had me. I still didn’t know how he had

Selena POV:The sound of birds chirping woke me up. It was extremely loud and cheerful to my ears.I popped an eye open to look towards the light source I could feel behind my closed lids. From beyond the sheer curtains, they revealed that it was morning or at it what I could gather from the dark clouds looming overhead.I rolled onto my back to look at the wooden clock on the bedside table. It showed that it was nine in the morning. I had never slept past the break of dawn, so I was surprised. I must have been extremely tired because I didn’t remember any sort of dream during the night. Just darkness. Remembering that I was going to spend time with Meredith, I got out of the bed to look for the shower. One good thing about living in a house was that I had a bathroom. While I had been timid at Ed’s place, here, I felt a lot better. I felt like I was owed something because I was deceived. But it wasn’t fun. My brain nagged at me to look

Selena POV:The rest of the day felt like a blur. After finding out about this mating business, I had turned off the world again. Meredith seemed to understand that I needed a little more time to digest all the information so the conversation focused on the coming barbecue the day after. Meredith would be taking me to it, and it was going to take place in the large opening in the center of pack land where the flames couldn’t reach the trees. In two short days, everything I knew about myself had been turned on its head. I didn’t know what to think or how much I could ask since Meredith was being open. Neo seemed to be a bit more closed off, but it only served to remind me that Meredith was just as much a stranger as the next person. There was another thing. I had just met them but I felt like I knew them for much longer. They had befriended me quicker than anyone I had known and shown me kindness that even my father hadn’t been fully capable o

Selena POV:“Ruth,” the Alpha warned. She slowly moved away, but still stayed put at his side. He took an instinctive step away from her, his eyes never leaving mine. I lowered my head.His expression was like he was looking at something that bothered him. The corner of his lips was turned down in a slight frown. “I am happy to see you healthy,” he commented before going silent. “Meredith is teaching this one some of her voodoo, I hear,” Ruth started. “God, that demonstration was freaky but you turned out to be a dirt witch,” she snickered, seemingly bored. She didn’t bother to look in my direction again. For that I was glad. If that was all she understood, I had no need to correct her. “Yes,” I replied politely. I didn’t have to stoop to her level. “A dime a dozen from what I know,” she said, rolling her eyes.“Ruth!” Neo admonished be

Selena POV:Meredith woke up an hour after. She slipped into her chair, slouching and resting her head on the table, still sleepy. “Are you still sleepy?” I asked as I took a sip of the tea I had made. She sucked in a deep breath and nodded. “It was too draining for me yesterday. I am rarely around so many people, so it is hard for me to have so much noise around me.” Again, she sighed. I had to say that I felt the same. Finally, she stretched and got up from the chair, the wooden legs screeching at her movement. She poured herself a mug of tea and then sat down. When she was awake, she spoke, “So, ready for a lesson?”“Sure,” I said confidently. We got up from the table and made our way to the greenhouse.As we reached the middle of the room and near the circle, Meredith stopped and turned to face me. She had my complete attention and our fatigue was completely forgotten. I want
